Regarding Philip Walden, Jr., Childhood Home. Excerpt from the music history tour brochure:
This home was once owned by Capricorn Records founder Phil Walden and Katherine Kennedy Walden. Their son Philip graduated from Mercer University School of Law and worked as a successful entertainment lawyer. He also played an instrumental role in the second resurgence of Capricorn Records in the early 1990s, when he discovered Widespread Panic. He was inducted posthumously into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame in 2015.
